#sorry this made me so heated jskdjek

[skullrock]

Just came across a tweet that said that said Steve hasnt suffered much compared to the other characters and that his trauma doesnt matter because hes "privileged" 😒 but then i realised it was from a Jonathan fan who hates Steve and only conditionally likes Nancy just because shes their fav's gf...

I have SO MUCH to say about this but I’m gonna keep my mouth shut ... actually no I’m not

FIRST: I don’t understand why ... people hate Steve? People are ALLOWED I’m not saying that they can’t !!! But every single time I’ve seen Steve hate it’s been from Jancy fans who, for some reason, cannot stand him. Y’all ... Stancy is over. There’s not even a threat. Jancy is obviously end game. Y’all don’t have to hate Steve over this <\3 hate Steve for legit reasons pls stop hating him bc he dated Nancy for like one season jwkdjdkeke

SECOND: Also people’s trauma is valid literally no matter what?? Even B*lly’s trauma is valid ... it’s fucking trauma. It doesn’t matter who the person is. It’s not something you can gate keep lol ... I know these are fictional people but I have had my trauma gatekept before and it’s so fucking annoying. Shut up. Who a person is has no relation to the trauma they’ve faced I am so over this concept

THIRD: what the HELL do they mean that Steve hasn’t gone thru “much”??? We haven’t seen a lot of his trauma ON SCREEN but he very obviously carries a lot? His parents are neglectful; his first genuine friend was DUSTIN HENDERSON, age 9, nerd; he lost the first person to ever LOVE him for reasons he could not control; a classmate DIED IN HIS POOL; he got the shit beat out of him to the point where he genuinely could have died; he has risked his life several times for others, not because he thought he could do it but because he literally does not care if he lives or dies as long as others are safe; he got drugged and beat in an underground Russian base; had an identity crisis because the same guy who almost killed him w a plate and his bare fists usurped his role and his (shitty) friends leaving him utterly alone for the remainder of his senior year after S2. I’m probably missing a lot here but y’all wanna say that ain’t ENOUGH??? shut up. I’m tired

Anyway here’s my badge again
